They're now narrowly ahead of Paolo Nutini at the top of "musical acts I hate with every ounce of my being" list.

I've heard one song from them and one song from Twang and, whilst I'm not keen on the Twang song, it's obvious Scouting Girls are far more unorginal, bland and goddamn hate-worthy. So why are they getting such an easy ride?

But "It's not you" or whatever it's called does seem to be the blandest thing I've ever heard and to have even less ideas than everything else that it sounds like (and it does sound like everything else).

They got "big" really quickly didn't they? It's weird how these things happen. And pretty depressing in this case.

that they're signed and I am not. Not only does the single show little sign of originality, but also little sign of any knowledge regarding how to write or construct a pop song, or indeed any form of musical composition. It's utterly abysmal.

If I could ignore them I really would but, due to the radio where I work, I have to listen to them. And it's really fucking unpleasant.

Yeah - they'll be huge alright. They're doing lowest common denominator bullshit and they'll sell off the back of it. But they are shit, they will always be shit and maybe they'll be rich, famous and shit. And if that's what they want then good for them. But that won't change how bland they are, how derivative they are and how damn fucking uninspired they are.

Personally I'd sooner be an unknown band that's got guts, imagination and integrity than a famous band that's a bland facimile of whatever's selling this year.
